Customizing Password Reset
processes

Password Reset scripts enable you
to customize Password Reset by creating
your own credential store, verification, and identification types, and extend them by defining
extension scripts. You can also create a custom credential store type, custom verification type,
or verification.

Password Reset scripting is available to users with the password_reset_admin role. The easiest
way to customize Password Reset is:

Extension scripts enable
you to extend functionality in a password reset process. The extension script
category refers to the specific types of behavior for an extension script (for
example, credential store, verification, identification type, or as a
post-processor).

To enroll for the 'Security Questions' verification, the user selects several questions and supplies answers that only the user knows. You can add a custom question to the set of questions that are included with the base system.

The Password Reset application includes several example verifications that you can use as they are or as the basis for a custom verification. If the verification types in the base system do not meet your needs, you can create a custom verification type.
